Please Note: These serial numbers apply to D-10's only. After each number, the letter 'D' is stamped. Great care has been taken to verify the accuracy of this information with various 'Push-Pull Experts' around the U.S. However, we cannot guarantee the information given in the above chart is 100% accurate.
In the years 1964 and 1965, it appears that serial numbers were taken off of the sales invoice; and that these guitars were not consecutively numbered (as they may have used an invoice or 2 in between guitar sales for pickup sales or string sales, etc.)
Also, at a certain point, it is possible that the endplates were serialized ahead of guitar construction and put on a shelf, and then taken down and assembled into a guitar at a later date. Therefore, it is possible that some numbers may fall into one year earlier or later than shown on the chart.

Regal Resonator Guitar Serial Numbers
This is a mid-grade Regal from before WWII; the 1940 catalog identifies it as a model 312. The company is mostly associated with low-end instruments, but the better guitars like this tend to sound pretty good if they're in playable condition. The Regal Musical Instrument Company is a former US musical instruments company and current brand owned by different companies through the ages. By the 1930s, Regal was one of the largest manufacturers in the world. Since its inception, the Regal name has been used in a wide range of resonator instruments, such as guitars, mandolins and ukuleles. Sep 15, 2017 Look at the first number of your serial number if one exists. Through 1987, Aria guitars serial numbers represented the year of manufacturer as either the first one or first two digits of the serial number. For example, a guitar made in 1978 might have the first two digits of 78 or the first digit of 8. These guitars were the dream guitars of 13 avid Gibson and Adam Jones fans so we have decided to publish the serial numbers of the stolen guitars and are appealing to all music-makers to keep an eye out for them on popular resale websites. Fans should ask any third-party sellers for a serial number. The new company marketed ukuleles and tenor guitars, but not 6-string guitars. However, experts have agreed that Regal built guitar models for other labels (Bruno, Weyman, Stahl, and Lyon & Healy) during the 1910-1920 era. Regal eventually announced that their six string models would be distributed through a number of wholesalers.
